Loyalty Day & The May Sanctuary

May 1st – May 3rd

Historically, May 1st is recognized as Loyalty Day…a moment to reaffirm heritage and freedom. At Iola, we believe freedom isn't something granted to us from afar; it is something we cultivate right here, in the company we keep and the soil we tend.

In a world that often feels heavy and disconnected, our loyalty belongs to the island. To the quiet of the morning, the warmth of the fire, and the neighbors who make this place a sanctuary. This weekend, we are opening the Barn as a space to reclaim that connection.

Love,

Chelsea and the Iola Team
